London: 31-year-old England international Ashley Cole is prepared to leave Chelsea in the summer according the The Sun. It is reported that owner Roman Abramovich has grown tired of players, including Cole, criticising under-fire boss Andre Villas-Boas and is considering a clear-out.
The Russian billionaire is "fed up with their [the players] moaning," and is willing to let them leave in order to prevent a dressing-room revolt according to sources.
Cole had allegedly questioned Villas-Boas' tactics after a string of poor results including Tuesday's 3-1 Champions League defeat to Napoli.
The Stepney-born defender, who moved across London from Arsenal in 2006, has played over 150 games for Chelsea and is currently one of the longest-serving players at the club.
The Blues currently lie in fifth place, just outside a European spot, despite Premier League title ambitions at the start of the season.
